SPECIAL GUESTS

We're delighted to welcome Julia Streets who we first heard about when she was featured on Radio 4's Today Programme and invited her to perform her show as part of our Funny Women run at the Edinburgh Fringe. Her material is based on true observations of corporate life gathered from 20 years earning her pinstripes.

Music will come in the form of talented young singer Malory Torr. Malory has been performing her own original songs now for over two years and has reached the final selection of Pizza Express's Big Audition with Jamie Cullum music competition.

This show is in support of The Victoria Foundation.
